Dec. 4 - Minnie was a favorite with her foster and proved to be truly a solo cat. Her people took a while to find her and now they are attached at the paw. Minnie hopes for her special snacks under the tree this year.

Our timid little treasure making steady progress- Nessa on TOP of the tree!

AVAILABLE
Name: Nessa 🩷
Gender: Female
Breed: DSH
Approx. DOB: March 31, 2024
Good with cats: solo
Good with dogs: yes (cat savvy dogs)
Good with kids: likely yes (older kids who understand Nessa's need for space)
Litter trained: yes
Nessa is a gentle, soft-voiced sweetheart who continues to bloom a little more each week. Though naturally timid, she’s learning to trust her surroundings and the people who care for her. One of her newest quirks is her adorable ā€œstair routineā€ā€”if she’s downstairs and hears us nearby, she’ll scamper up the steps, sit at the door, and quietly stare as if deciding her next brave move.
Her confidence is growing in small but meaningful ways. Where she once waited for her food to be placed before appearing, she now ventures out earlier to investigate and then willingly accepts her meals. She speaks rarely, offering only a soft, delicate mew when she truly has something to say, making each little sound feel special.
Nessa still needs a calm home, patience, and gentle encouragement, but she rewards it all with steady progress and endearing behaviors. Every week reveals a new milestone—another sign that this sweet, shy girl is finding her footing and opening her heart. With time and understanding, Nessa will continue to blossom into a wonderful and loyal companion.
Maybe she can be convinced to join in on a Zoom chat with her foster Mom. If you think she may be your 'soul cat' complete an application and we will make it happen.

Today, Tuesday, December 2, 2025 is Giving Tuesday šŸŽ

Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement that reminds us of what really matters: community, connection, and kindness. Each year, Canadian charities and donors participate, helping to offset the consumerism focus of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Why is this important for non-profit organizations such as OKR?

šŸ’—Visibility: Expands our reach and connects our mission with new audiences.
šŸ’—Inspiration: Showcases incredible acts of kindness from kids’ lemonade stands to local businesses stepping up.
šŸ’—Momentum: Sparks a wave of support, attracting new donors, volunteers, and partners.
šŸ’—Hope: A refreshing reminder that people care and want to make a positive impact.

This Giving Tuesday, please consider a small donation to an organization that is important to you.

Just in time before the really cold weather hits two young Moms and their three kittens are now inside. Thank you to their feeder for taking care of them until now and to the fosters that have opened their home to these five souls.

A few weeks ago, when we shared that several of our kittens were facing medical issues in the same week, things looked rough. We simply couldn’t afford another round of unexpected vet bills.

So you can imagine our surprise (and relief) when one of the sponsors of the Stormlight Kittens Fundraiser reached out offering to help.

We would like to recognize and sincerely thank the Colton Longbottom Foundation & Flora Hall Brewing for their incredibly generous contribution of $2500 toward our accumulated bills.

Dalinar and Renarin dropped by to thank Dave in purr-son and happily soaked up all the attention.

December 2: Today marks the 2nd anniversary of Olive’s return to the rescue. Adopted in 2020 her family were heartbroken but could no longer support the financial burden of Olive’s surgeries and reached out for help. This cat ate everything from drywall to balloons. Today also marks Olive’s adoption by her foster family. A special day indeed. Thank you to her family for doing the right thing, the community for supporting us and her foster for taking her in, forever.

Ottawa Kitten Rescue

We welcome you all in support of our new feline rescue, Ottawa Kitten Rescue. For those that know us, it comes as no surprise that we would join forces to save the lives of kittens and cats in need.

Given we both have such a strong passion for helping animals, we felt there no better way to honour this passion than to start a rescue. And so, we introduce, with so much love and excitement in our hearts: Ottawa Kitten Rescue.

Ottawa Kitten Rescue will focus its efforts primarily on rescuing abandoned neonatal kittens and will extend care and support to pregnant cats and moms with kittens.

We would like to thank everyone for their support in our efforts and we can’t wait to begin this journey with you allā¤ļø
